Scope and Content Note

The miscellaneous subject files reflect the variety of Helen Bullard's personal and professional interests in the 1960s and 1970s. Clients, consultation projects, her public relations agency, her duties as a partner in the architectural firm, and a variety of people and events figure prominently in this subseries. Clients and consultation projects include Joseph Amisano, Kay Greenway, Marny Holman, the Atlanta bond issue election of December, 1975, a McGeorge Bundy luncheon given by the Ford Foundation, and the Louisville (Ky.) Housing Authority. Also in the subseries are files on Toombs, Amisano, and Wells from 1965 to 1968 which indicate that one of Bullard's roles was watching newspapers, local government meetings, and other sources for potential jobs and making the firm's initial inquiries about planned buildings. Though she was with the firm for seven years, these files and the Fernbank papers constitute the bulk of materials in the collection relating to her partnership in the architectural firm. A final item of interest is the "Woman of the Year" folder. In 1967, Bullard was nominated by friends for the award. The folder contains correspondence supporting Bullard's nomination and provides biographical information not readily available elsewhere in the collection. Correspondence, financial records, survey forms and results, and reports make up the bulk of this section of the subject files.
